Commented on Ricoh reshuffle sees Pentax take control of cameras news story
I can only imagine you were there when the iPhone came out calling it stupid, complaining that it didn't have a physical keyboard and confidently predicting it would never go anywhere...

Commented on Ricoh reshuffle sees Pentax take control of cameras news story
"They should study the market more carefully." Pentax will do fine by ignoring "the market" and building interesting, innovative cameras that are enjoyable to use instead.

Commented on Ricoh reshuffle sees Pentax take control of cameras news story
It's not. Ricoh camera development group is joining the Pentax group. Since the former is far smaller than the latter, it is very much "Ricoh is going to Pentax" rather than the other way around.

Commented on Pentax announces K-01 K-mount APS-C mirrorless camera news story
Just had a thought that it would be a killer feature for this camera to be able to tether by USB to a laptop, so for macro, studio, or video work you can use the laptop screen instead of the rear...

Created thread Pentax K-01
Judging from the dimensions and the relatively quick time-to-market, I wouldn't be surprised to learn it is based on a K-5/7 frame. Remove mirror assembly, AF detector, focusing screen, pentaprism,...

Commented on Pentax announces K-01 K-mount APS-C mirrorless camera news story
Interesting. It's a fat beastie. I think overall I'd rather have a K-5, but this is a strong play by Pentax-Ricoh: really standout design, and direct support for all the legacy glass.

Commented on Nikon replaces high-end Coolpix 'P' series with P510 and P310 news story
